An overview and discussion for parents and researchers of 5 new investigational agents in clinical trials for 2011 presented by the Principal Investigators.

New treatment options are needed for children with deadly solid and CNS tumors. A new class of investigational agents called Oncolytic Viruses became available to children in 2010, and in 2011 there will be five different clinical trials open offering various virotherapy agents.
